EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a study for one of Georges Seurat's most renowned works, "Bathers at Asnieres". Created in 1883-4, this preparatory sketch offers a glimpse into the artist's meticulous process. Measuring 15x25 cm, it captures the essence of Seurat's neo-impressionist style. The composition depicts a group of bathers by the riverbank, exuding tranquility and leisure. The figures are seated or lying down, some partially nude while others fully clothed. Their relaxed poses suggest a momentary escape from the bustling city life that surrounds them. Seurat's mastery lies in his use of pointillism to create an optical blend of colors and shapes when viewed from afar. This technique is evident even in this small-scale study, as each stroke contributes to the overall harmony and balance within the scene. Housed in the National Gallery in London, UK, this artwork is part of Pierre Bera's esteemed collection. Its inclusion here allows art enthusiasts to appreciate not only Seurat's finished masterpiece but also his creative process through this preparatory sketch. Through Peter Willi's lens, we are transported back to late 19th-century France where Seurat revolutionized painting with his innovative techniques. This print serves as a testament to both Seurat's genius and Willi’s skillful documentation of fine art history.
